What does an ENERGY STAR score of 62 mean?
ENERGY STAR scores run from 1 to 100 and are computed by the EPA's Portfolio Manager as a percentile against similar buildings nationwide, adjusted for climate, size and use: a score of 62 means the building performs better than about 62% of its national peers. BuildingCensus bands the score into report-card grades; 62 falls in band C — below median (55–69). It sits 13 points below 75, the threshold for ENERGY STAR certification. In Chicago, 35% of scored buildings are at 75 or above.
Site energy-use intensity (EUI) is the energy a building uses on site in a year divided by its floor area, in thousand Btu per square foot — lower is more efficient. 3300 Lake Shore Drive Condominium Association's 83.7 kBtu/ft² across 139,094 sq ft works out to about 11.6 billion Btu (3,412 MWh-equivalent) in 2023. Its source EUI of 110.9 kBtu/ft² also counts the energy lost generating and delivering that power, which is why it is higher. The disclosure also reports 534,501 kWh of electricity and 98,231 therms of natural gas for the year.
Which law requires 3300 Lake Shore Drive Condominium Association to report its energy use?
